A 3D Rendering of an artificial planet with rings and three moons.

I have not vanished! Nor have I stopped working on #Greeble4. Indeed I have been taking a break, however, in anticipation of an impending case of burnout. As a refresher for myself, I've been working on an unrelated worldbuilding project in #blender. Welcome to the world of Wyrmskye.

Finally! After a long dev summer I made a new video! Greeble 4: Update 13!
Worldgen distance doubled! Lighting enhanced! More Pickups! And the flying Hovercart!

A screenshot of a glowing green walkway through a multicolored megacity. There are orange-striped cone-shaped structures and hovering platforms.

A screenshot of street in a glowing neon, multicolored megacity. There are red-striped cone-shaped structures and hovering platforms.

A screenshot of the distant skyline of a glowing neon multicolored megacity. In the game the player can travel to an explore every visible surface, including the distant asteroid behind the structures.

A screenshot of a street-level walk through a glowing neon multicolored alien megacity. Pictured here are a number of red-striped cone structures and a hovering orange orb.

It's been a while, huh? This summer has seen me fighting multithreading and refactoring a whole lot of code. I doubled the render distance and increased the fps, overhauled entity spawns, as well as a whole lot of other stuff.

Don't worry, I'll make another video soon. #greeble4 #godot #blender

New #Greeble4 Update! This was a big one! The #MegaSpacePort is becoming more full and interesting. Have you ever wanted to explore an #alien #megacity?

Skipping a #Greeble4 Update again this week because I am on Vacation! And I wanted to have a BIG content update next week. :DDD

Yesss I implemented a system in #greeble4 for certain objects to persist between different magnitude scales. This opens up a lot of options for catered landmarks and finer details for objects that exist at larger scales. #godot #madewithgodot #procgen #megastructure

Newwww #Greeble4 video update! In Update 11 I show a lot of the new content I added, mostly the overhaul of the greater MegaSpacePort itself. #alien #megacity #megastructure #madewithgodot #godot #scifi #space #indie #solodev #procgen #devlog #lowpoly #blender #walkingsim

A common UV-mapping image used to assist a 3D modeling artist with the process of mapping a texture to a 3D model.

Took another step toward controlled worldgen in #greeble4. Textures can now be projected in 3D space onto the surface of larger objects and their colors will determine which terrain objects are chosen.

This means I can use my own drawings as a basis for the terrain generation. #godot #madewithgodot

No #Greeble4 Update this week as I have been mostly squashing bugs and the new biome isn't anywhere near ready enough yet. There will be a few new little surprises here or there in the next update, however. :D

An overhead screenshot of a cyberpunk megacity showing off the utilization of noise functions in the procedurally generated game world. There is a dark patch of buildings surrounded by glowing neon structures. The dark patch represents where the perlin noise has selected a certain kind of building, while the glowing neon structures are a different selection. There is also green debug text in the top corners, and near the bottom, the player is holding a golden token item.

Oh man, I just took a big step toward making the worldgen in #greeble4 deterministic by way of layering noise functions (and potentially textures!!!) and projecting them in 3D space!

You can see the perlin islands now instead of sheer, homogenous chaos!

#Greeble4 : Update 10! Anyone else like watching those videos where someone wanders around a foreign city? Well that's what this game is about. Wandering around an endless #alien #megacity #megastructure #madewithgodot #godot #scifi #space #indie #solodev #procgen #devlog

#Greeble4 : Update 9! Began the long and complicated process of implementing interactables. Also updated some of the biomes! More to come soon! #godot #madewithgodot #blender #megacity #megastructure #scifi #space #scifi #indie #solodev #procgen #devlog

Gonna have to skip two weeks in a row and not post a video update of #Greeble4 tonight. Too many life things in the way and game progress was mostly background code for the Interaction system anyway. You can pick up and drop trash bags now! Looking forward to next weekend (3 day weekend!)

#Greeble4 - Update 8!
Another two-week update! Improvements to worldgen, more terrain, new decorations, and SOUND. Finally...

7 decoration objects modeled in Blender3D. 2 large screens, 2 alien trash cans, a large egg-shaped vending machine, and 2 metal crates.

Ingame screenshot of the large alien trash can.

Modeling decor objects for the #Alien #Megacity! Gonna need to make a lot more over time, but I how these are turning out sofar. I'm still debating using 2D sprites for the smaller ones, so I might render them later.

#Greeble4 - Update 7!
Two weeks in one! Major world additions like a huge asteroid, more skyscrapers, prettier lights, and major bug fixes! #Godot #Blender #Megastructure #Scifi #Space #Indie #Megacity #Procgen #Devlog That's right I did this instead of watching the Superbowl..

#Greeble4 - Update 6!
Big lighting changes thanks to #Godot's post processing effects! The #megacity just got a lot easier to see in. Debug mode has also recieved some much needed qol improvemenmts! #blender #3D #megastructure #space #scifi #indie #procgen #devlog

#Greeble4 Update 5!

New textures and some new entities (as well as new bugs! *sigh*). The Megacity is getting more stable and atmospheric! #godot #blender #3D #megastructure #megacity #space #scifi #indie #procgen #devlog

#Greeble4 Update 4! Not the largest update this week, or at least, visible one. Lots of bug-fighting behind the scenes. I did manage to do some 3D modeling before taking this video, though. #godot #blender #3d #megastructure #megacity #space #scifi #indie #procgen

#Greeble4 Update! Lots of new content and world generation features. Enjoy #wandering and #falling in a #futuristic #megacity in #space!. #godot #3d #gamedev #blender #proceduralgeneration #procgen #megastructure #indie

#Greeble4 update! Added Gravity and Player Control. Also worked on some worldgen bugs, added new tiles, and a gross texture over everything. Definitely watch the whole way through because flying out of the starting area is awesome! #godot #procgen #space #megastructure

#Greeble4 update! Not too much different here other than some new models to test the loading system. Next time I am planning on working on prettier visuals and a #gravity system!

This is my fourth attempt at making a super-cosmic scale game system. Warning: extremely early test! My next push is to get some proper visuals and more worldgen features. #Godot #3D #indie #space #procgen #Greeble4
